Right below your message was this sale notice from Buy.com:

Unless you're looking to try embedded development, I wouldn't bother 
trying to do anything with a 16mb, floppy-based laptop.  I have a phone 
running Linux that is bigger than that.  If it's bulky, it might be 
useful to fill it with cement and use it to anchor your boat.  
Otherwise, let it go.
